The unicorn can be ridden like a regular horse and used as a free mount. The unicorn is equivalent to a white horse in speed, has a very powerful attack, is resistant to several types of attack, and reflects damage. However, it will attack almost anyone or anything wielding a weapon (including fists) and will not stop attacking until its target is dead. This means that the unicorn will attack monsters, enemies, allies, and even you, in most cases. Accidentally pulling out a weapon at any time, or raising your fists, even to defend the unicorn, will lead to you being attacked. However, the unicorn may not attack you if its disposition is sufficiently high, for example, if you have high fame. The unicorn does not react to destruction or conjuration magic, so it may be a more suitable mount if you focus on these skills (the unicorn will not attack conjured creatures, but it will attack Everscamps).
